About Us

Our Commitment

Our coffees are fair trade and purchased from master roasters with years of experience in buying top quality arabica coffees from around the world and then roasting them to perfection.  Once it's in our hands, we strive to serve you the best coffee experience possible.  This has been our mission since the day we opened in January 1995.

If you're not in a hurry, come inside and have a cup with us!

We're bigger than we look!  Don't just drive thru, we have plenty of cozy seating inside.  Belly up to the bar, snag the ever popular booth or bring in your laptop and work/study at a smaller table while taking advantage of the FREE WIFI.

More than Coffee

As proud as we are of the coffees we offer, we're equally proud of our food offerings. Customers love our homemade cinnamon rolls baked fresh every morning, breakfast burritos and other savory treats.  We're confident you'll enjoy the experience.
